Using the alternate form of newtons second law, compute the force (in N) needed to accelerate a 1,160 kg car from 0 to 23 m/s in 12s. The change in momentum is the car's momentum when traveling 23 m/s minus its momentum when going 0 m/s. ( enter the magnitude)

Yesterday you saw in the news that the Giant Asian Murder Hornet has migrated to North America. You didn't think much about it until today when one of those suckers crashed at high speed into the screen door at the back of your house (splat!). The thing hit the door so hard that the door swung shut!We will assume that GAMH had a mass of m = 0.069 kg and was moving with an amazing velocity of v = 9.2 meters/second. The GAMH splatted a distance d = 0.65 meters from the hinge. The door itself can be treated as a rod of mass M = 0.955 kg with a length of L = 1.00 meters rotating about its end.Determine all the following:Write the FORMULA for the moment of inertia of the door without the hornet: I =
ML23
kg m2Write the FORMULA for the moment of inertia of the door with the hornet: I =
ML23+md2
kg m2Determine the angular momentum of the hornet before it collides with the door Lhornet =.412 kg m2/s4. Determine the angular velocity of the hornet-stained…
Assuming we take several trials where the total mass ?1+?2 is constant, but we redistribute themasses between ?1 and ?2. The equation you derived as your answer to the Problem (2) would apply.
(a) Assume that we took these trials and plottedthe difference in the weights,??−??, on the ?-axis and the accelerationon the ?-axis. What would be the theoretical value–that is, in terms of other known quantities –of the slope?(Once again, you can think of this in terms of your equation answer to the previous problem.
(b) For the same plot, what would be the theoretical value of the intercept?
(c)Now consider if there were another constant force in the equation, such as friction. What would the theoretical value of the interceptbe in this case? (justify)
